India is now home to the world's largest number of blind people. Of 37 million people across the globe, 15 million blind people are from India. 75% of these are cases of avoidable blindness. On the other hand, while India needs2.5 lakh donated eyes every year, the country's 109 eye banks of which 5 located in Delhi manage to collect a maximum of just 25,000 eyes, 30% of which can't be used. Meanwhile, the shortage of donated eyes is becoming a huge problem. In 15 million blind people in India, three million that is 26% of whom are children who suffer due to corneal disorders. But only 10,000 corneal transplants are being done every year because of a shortage of donated eyes. The bionic eye aims to restore basic visual cues to people suffering from eye diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa, which is a genetic eye condition. A video camera fitted to a pair of glasses will capture and process images. These images are sent wirelessly to a bionic implant at the back of the eye which stimulates dormant optic nerves to generate points of light (phosphenes) that form the basis of images in the brain. Thus, even blind people can have a vision. The eye is a complex optical system that, like other organs, may become injured due to disease or injury. As such, various prosthetics have been designed to allow such people to regain their sight and enjoy a full life. This paper mostly covers the cornea, but it also covers the iris and the lens. Since someone else was researching artificial retinas, that will not be covered. The truth is, I really wanted to cover that, since there are many advances in that field, while still being in its infancy. For those millions of us whose vision isn’t perfect, there are glasses. But for those hundreds of thousands who are blind, devices that merely assist the eyes just aren’t enough.. Technology has created many pathways for mankind. Now technology has improved to that extent wherein the entire human body can be controlled using a single electronic chip. We have seen prosthetics that helped to overcome handicaps. Now it is the turn of artificial vision through bionic eyes. Chips designed specially to imitate the characteristics of the damaged retina and the cones and rods of the organ of sight are implanted with microsurgery. Linking electronics and biotechnology, scientists have made the commitment to the development of technology that will provide or restore vision for the visually impaired around the world. Whether it is Biomedical, Computer, Electrical, or Mechanical Engineers all of them have a role to play in the personification of Bionic Eyes. There is hope for the blind in the form of bionic eyes. This technology can add life to their vision-less eyes.
